TRON DAO moderated a panel on real-world asset tokenization at Korea Blockchain Week 2026 in Seoul, highlighting global demand for dollar access and stablecoin infrastructure. The conference, hosted by FACTBLOCK from September 30 to October 1, gathered digital asset founders, investors, institutions, and policymakers.
Real-World Asset Expansion in Seoul
The panel, titled “More Assets, More Geos: How RWAs Are Eating the World,” brought together leaders from decentralized finance, stablecoin issuance, and blockchain infrastructure. TRON DAO Research Manager Sam Reynolds moderated the discussion on the BitGo Stage, pointing to geographic disparities in investment access. “Where someone lives still determines much of what they can invest in. Tokenization has the potential to change that,” Reynolds stated. Francesco Fabracci, Head of Tokenization Expansion at Tether; Chef Kids, CEO of Pancake Swap; and Brian Smith, President of the Jito Foundation, joined the panel to examine how tokenized assets expand across various markets.
Stablecoin Infrastructure as a Foundation
Discussions centered on bridging traditional finance with decentralized networks by making tokenized assets easier to access, trade, and use across borders. Reynolds noted that stablecoins have already established clear market demand for digital dollars. That global appetite has positioned the TRON network to host the majority of the world’s USDT volume. TRON DAO aims to use this existing familiarity with tokenized dollars to scale access toward other traditional financial assets.
